    You always have a great selection of world coins always fascinated with them and your pictures of them in all the threads are absolutely brilliant really clear and detailed exactly what it says on the tin 👏👏👏

    Thank you so much for this kind comment. I must say, there is a great variety in what I offer, but that's simply because there is greater diversity in foreign coinage than there is in coinage of the United Kingdom. Everybody has their niche and interests, but for me the great variety within the realm of foreign coinage is what captivates me.

    All the best! 🌟

    Out of work at the moment, I'm afraid, but a piece of history.  Ducats became an informal common currency with about 30 polities minting them at one point or another.  Predates the Euro by more than half a millennium.

    They are fascinating coins. I did a short write-up on these in a post I did on some Mamluk Ashrafi gold coins recently. These were struck in the same weight and approximately the same purity so as to make trade easier back in the day.

    Some quality items lately  @DuncanWylieWilson!

    It's not just a 'bullion only' forum, contrary to opinion 😇

    A beautiful item - I wish that I had seen it earlier - 😢

    Thank you for that, Roy. I am always happy to contribute a different dynamic to the forum. This has been a really well-received piece and that is always good to see as someone who deeply appreciates the historical significance of such pieces!

    Sorry that you have missed out on this occasion, @Aldebaran I would love to say I could get another...
